"King" Arthur Takes The Big Step Towards Boxing Royalty
By Jake Donovan - King Arthur Abraham was on the fast track to stardom early in his career, but reached a point where being forced to settle for number two was as good as it would get.
All he wanted was the chance to prove hes the best middleweight on the planet.
Its a question that will forever go unanswered, but a few years and eight pounds later now has the chance to prove hes the best super middleweight in the world.
The first step towards obtaining boxing royalty comes this weekend, when he faces former middleweight champion Jermain Taylor at the O2 World Arena in Berlin, Germany (Saturday, Showtime, 8PM ET/PT same-day tape-delay). The bout officially launches the highly anticipated Super Six World Boxing Classic, a round-robin style tournament featuring six of the best super middleweights in the world.
Theres a touch of irony in this matchup being Abrahams first draw in the super middleweight series. Taylor represents one of two lineal middleweight champions during the Armenians alphabet title reign, a reminder of the road block he meant when longing to reach beyond the number two spot to which he was relegated for years.

Pavlik/Abraham not happening is one of the great disappointments of this decade. Both men conceivably could've stopped the other. I'm proud of both with Pavlik facing dangerous Paul Williams, but I have more respect for Abraham in this tourney. Not an easy fight to be had, but I think Arthur comes out with a KO win in the first round. Dirrell is the big mystery in this tournament, and should he be found wanting after Froch measures him, then Abraham is the number 2 guy for me. I miss the days when Abraham rocked the smurf hat and themesong, but I'll take a quality fighter over that any day.

I agree Pavlik/Abraham had two years to fight each other and didn't do it. Such a shame.

Stayed 7 nights and had a great time. What makes this resort good could also be a little of a negative,and that is the resort is HUGE. If you are staying in building 20 and you want to go to the sunset cove beach, it will be a long walk. The benefit of the size is that everyone isn't on top of each other. People are spread out. The main pool is huge and the smaller pools are nice also. The beaches aren't that great. If you go to a resort to spend time on a beautiful beach, this probably isn't the resort for you. The food was good and the drinks weren't watered down at all. The service was okay, our room was clean, and the entertainment was good. Would recommend this resort to someone who wasn't hung up on staying at a place with a great beach.

Next month sees the Royal Wedding between Prince William and Catherine Middleton, and Clarence House has today launched an official website for the event. The website has social media links via Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, and The Royal Channel on YouTube.
Stephen Bates from Guardian.co.uk is reporting in an article, that the website has been described as an official service for anyone interested in the wedding. This is a big move for the Royal household into the 21st century, who have often been accused by some in the past for being too old fashioned.
But only last year the Royal Family started to post images on Flickr after opening an account. There are virtual tours and various photos and other information on the new site. It could also provide a live web stream of the wedding itself when it takes place on the 29th of April.
In this modern age of social media, it was pretty obvious that the Royal wedding would use the popular social networks to connect with the British public and beyond. Using sites like Facebook and Twitter shows the Royal Family can move with the digital age.

Cancer Research UK and Cancer Research Technology, the charity's development and commercialization arm, are taking over preclinical and early clinical development of Merck KGaA's leukemia and lymphoma candidate called DI-B4.
Cancer Research UK will fund a Phase I trial with DI-B4, a CD19-targeting mAb. Merck retains the option to take the antibody through later-stage clinical development and commercialization in return for future payments to the charity. If the company decides not to exercise this option, Cancer Research Technology will be given rights to the antibody to look for other partnership opportunities.
DI-B4 will be one of the first drugs manufactured at Cancer Research UK's new £20 million (about $32.33 million) Biotherapeutic Development Unit. It was designed for the development and GMP manufacture of biotherapeutics including viruses for clinical trials. The Phase I trial with Dl-B4 will involve about 20 to 40 patients with advanced B-cell lymphoma.
The deal comes under Cancer Research UK's Clinical Development Partnership program. The center says that DI-B4 is the fourth anticancer drug to enter this program, which was established in 2006.

BWS vs SW
I own a backwoods competitor. Either one that you decide on you will be getting a quality piece of work. The inner frame of a backwoods is all steel with the outside being a light wt. sheeting. I can cook on my backwoods for 12hr on 10lbs of lump charcoal. However on a backwoods competitor you can not get a full pan in unless you bend the tabs on the end. The BWS competitor weighs 350lbs, so it would be better to roll it up on trailer. Shipping will be closer to you in GA from LA. Mike is a very gook guy and stands behind his product. He will build the cooker as you like. As you can tell in the south the BWS is very popular. The BWS in the south is like the Goodone is in KS. I have been very pleased by my cooker and have no regrets.

"If you establish a democracy, you must in due time reap the fruits of a democracy. You will in due season have great impatience of the public burdens, combined in due season with great increase of the public expenditure. You will in due season have wars entered into from passion and not from reason; and you will in due season submit to peace ignominiously sought and ignominiously obtained, which will diminish your authority and perhaps endanger your independence. You will in due season find your property is less valueable, and your freedom less complete." ~ Benjamin Disraeli

Thanks for re-posting this article; I hadn't seen it before.
"Number five: These dismal conclusions lead to a last, uncomfortable question: If torture produces limited gains at such high political cost, why does any rational American leader condone interrogation practices "tantamount to torture"?
One answer to this question seems to lie with a prescient CIA Cold War observation about Soviet leaders in times of stress. "When feelings of insecurity develop within those holding power," reads an agency analysis of Kremlin leadership applicable to the post-9/11 White House, "they become increasingly suspicious and put great pressures upon the secret police to obtain arrests and confessions. At such times, police officials are inclined to condone anything which produces a speedy 'confession,' and brutality may become widespread." In sum, the powerful often turn to torture in times of crisis, not because it works but because it salves their fears and insecurities with the psychic balm of empowerment."
I used to think that the acceptance of torture signaled the deserved end of this country, but now it looks like the deserved end of this country is what causes torture to happen - that it is inevitable that the ruling class would adopt it. I just hope the end comes soon, so this madness can stop.

* St. Louis Fed president: tapering possible later in year * Option-related sales, technicals accelerate losses * Coming up: U.S. Chicago PMI, Dallas Fed manufacturing Mon. (Adds analyst comment, weekly performance, update markets activity) By Frank Tang NEW YORK, Sept 20 Gold sank 2.5 percent on Friday as institutional investors sold aggressively after the Saint Louis Fed president said the U.S. central bank might move next month to reduce stimulus spending that has bolstered bullion for years. Silver tumbled 5 percent and platinum group metals fell more than 2 percent. Gold all but erased the 4.5 percent rise posted on Wednesday after the Fed said it would continue its massive bond buying program. That surprise decision triggered a buying binge that sent gold to its biggest one-day gain in over a year. Gold fell more than industrial commodities and equities, which also slid on Friday, after St. Louis Fed President James Bullard said the U.S. central bank could scale back its massive bond buying program at an October meeting if data points to a stronger economy. "The gold market had rallied substantially on tapering being taken off the table. Now Bullard's comments have injected some uncertainty near term, and that has prompted a wave of selling in the gold and the precious metals complex," said James Steel, chief precious metals analyst at HSBC. Spot gold fell 2.4 percent to $1,331.20 an ounce by 3:32 p.m. EDT (1932 GMT). For the week, gold is now around 0.5 percent higher after giving back most of Wednesday's 4.2 percent rise, its biggest daily gain since June 2012. U.S. Comex gold futures for December delivery settled down $36.80 an ounce at $1,332.50, with trading volume at about 10 percent above its 30-day average, preliminary Reuters data showed. Option-related selling accelerated gold's decline, said Comex gold options floor trader Jonathan Jossen, noting that many participants exercised put options after heavy buying of inexpensive puts following Wednesday's rally. Relatively thin volume during gold's rally this week also suggested that gains could be short lived, Jossen said. In addition, a two-percent drop of open interest in Comex gold futures on Wednesday showed the post-Fed rally was driven by investors who bought back previously bearish bets instead of new money, analysts said. Gold prices fell faster after declining below a key technical support at $1,345 where the 50-day and 100-day moving averages were converging, analysts said. FUND SELLING EYED Commodity hedge fund Clive Capital told investors it will close down, the latest commodity fund to call it a day. It blamed a lack of investment opportunities for its poor performance and outflows. Sean McGillivray, head of asset allocation at Oregon-based Great Pacific Wealth Management, said there were some "sell-the-rumor" type selling on Clive's news, as worries about panic selling by funds could further pressure gold. A gauge of investor interest, holdings in the world's largest gold exchange-traded fund, the SPDR Gold Trust, rose 0.88 tonnes, or 0.1 percent to 912 tonnes on Thursday. Among other precious metals, silver slid 5.3 percent to $21.82. Platinum was down 2.1 percent to $1,427.50 an ounce, while palladium dropped 2.5 percent to $713.97 an ounce. 3:32 PM EDT LAST/ NET PCT LOW HIGH CURRENT SETTLE CHNG CHNG VOL US Gold DEC 1332.50 -36.80 -2.7 1327.20 1368.40 175,307 US Silver DEC 21.927 -1.365 -5.9 21.755 23.180 54,911 US Plat OCT 1432.60 -40.40 -2.7 1427.80 1467.80 12,031 US Pall DEC 721.95 -16.25 -2.2 715.30 738.40 4,214 Gold 1331.20 -33.19 -2.4 1328.73 1368.01 Silver 21.820 -1.210 -5.3 21.750 23.130 Platinum 1427.50 -31.30 -2.1 1432.00 1464.50 Palladium 713.97 -18.53 -2.5 718.27 735.00 TOTAL MARKET VOLUME 30-D ATM VOLATILITY CURRENT 30D AVG 250D AVG CURRENT CHG US Gold 188,914 160,768 180,237 21.39 -2.46 US Silver 60,167 68,382 57,843 33.61 -4.59 US Platinum 15,958 11,525 12,362 20.64 0.00 US Palladium 4,456 6,906 5,886 (Additional reporting by Jan Harvey in London; Editing by Dale Hudson, Keiron Henderson and David Gregorio)

Historical Traveler Reviews Borg Hotel Reykjavík
Great Choice
I was in town for the Reychavik music festival where virtually the entire population of Iceland comes into town for a weekend of music and drinking. Couldn't imagine a better location than right on the square. We had a great room overlooking everything that was going on in the late hours of the night. The complimentary breakfast was perfect and the staff very helpful with suggestions and arranging excusions for us. I highly recommend this place.
Worth every $
Yes, it's expensive. Get over it. Iceland is expensive. Spend the xtra $$, it's worth it. Wonderful location. Very helpful and pleasant staff. Great comfy beds. I had friends staying at the hotel Klopp and hotel Skailbred this week, and let me tell you the rooms where horrible in both. How these hotels got 4 star ratings I'll never know. The Hotel Borg is truely a 4 star property.
We had a suite on the second floor. It really wasn't too loud as I read in previous posts. The room was divided into two areas and was large by European standards. When you hear the word "suite", don't think Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas. This is Europe remember. The room was large enough for two friends, great view of the park, and very, very clean. Original artwork was a nice touch as well.
If you'd like a taxi when you arrive at the airport call the hotel and they will arrange for a pickup. Our driver, Haukeur, was the best. (about 7500 ISK to the hotel for the two of us). I think that is cheaper than the regular taxi' at the airport. He was wonderful, giving us a tour and history lesson as we drove to downtown Rek. We liked him so much that we asked for him to pick us up for the return trip to the airport. He did, right on time. We picked up two friends over at the Skailbred hotel, went for late morning hotdogs at the harbor pylsur stand, drove to the Blue Lagoon (where he waited for more than four hours as we steamed, mudded up, and soaked, then off to the airport. We had Haukeur's services for 5 1/2 hours and he charged 15000 ISK for the trip! I didn't think 15000 ISK was too much, considering it was a group of four and we tied him up for most of the day. Well worth it for a relaxing stress free last day of travel.....
We were very pleased....
We stayed at Hotel Borg for four nights in April (definitely not the high season). We got a good rate through hotels and when I corresponded with the Borg, they suggested that both hotels and expedia often have lower rates than they give themselves.
Having read other reviews, we were expecting to have to wait for the room and worried about noise, but neither was a problem. On arrival (around 8am) we were given a room key and invited to take a look before accepting it. It was a second floor room in the new wing, quite large and with a lovely view of the square. We were worried about noise, so they offered us the key to a fourth floor room in the back of the old wing and suggested we look at that one as well. It was charming (in a way that the new wing room wasn't quite, though it was perfectly nice) but much smaller and lacked the view. We opted for the second floor room and thoroughly enjoyed it. We didn't really have a noise problem, though it's definitely a city hotel and light sleepers might have trouble. (The front desk was happy to supply earplugs....)
The service was absolutely lovely, the hotel was extremely comfortable and well located, and the entire experience left us feeling very, very happy.
Big room, superb location
We stayed at the Borg for two nights at the end of January, and found it to be ideally placed in the centre of Reykjavik. It's next door to an excellent bar (Kaffibrennslan, I think) and within a minute or two's walk of many other bars. Central Reykjavik is quite compact, so many of the sights are within a reasonably short and easy walk/drive. The main shopping streets are a couple of hundred metres away, and the main road which connects up to the rest of the island is nearby but unobtrusive.
The hotel room was large and had wooden flooring and a high ceiling. For my tastes, the decor could do with a bit of freshening up, though many people will love its authenticity. The bathroom was small but perfectly adequate, with a massive fixed shower head over the bath. You soon get used to the smell of sulphur that comes from all Reykjavik hot taps (due to the geothermally heated water) and the water from the cold tap is (apparently) pure spring water. We didn't eat at the hotel, and didn't see or try the bar, due to the hotel's proximity to so many other bars. The staff, like many locals, were very helpful, friendly and polite.
I didn't notice air conditioning in the room, but there were large radiators under each of the windows, whose levels could be adjusted. A slightly aged TV was in the room, which (unusually) had a number of British TV channels - including BBC1, Sky One and Sky Movies.
Our room was on the second floor, looking over the square. The windows have secondary glazing, and we didn't notice particularly high noise levels from the streets outside. If you're over-sensitive to noisy nights, get some ear plugs at the airport on your way out. But, based on our stay, you couldn't really describe this hotel as noisy. We were able to park our rental car on the square outside, but there are parking meters which charge between 10am and 6pm during the week and on Saturday.
I would certainly recommend the Borg, mainly for its excellent location. When we return to Iceland, we will certainly consider staying here again.
Choose your room carefully
We stayed in the Borg for 3 nights during mid December and generally enjoyed our stay. However, a serious word of warning - avoid rooms at the front of the hotel. We were on the second floor overlooking the central square - this was fantastic in the day but dreadful at night as drunken locals and tourists kept us up until about 4am - there is no double glazing! We moved to a room at the back of the hotel and found it much better
Fantastic room, great service
My husband and I spent our honeymoon in the Tower Suite at the Hotel Borg. The room, views and service were fantastic. It wasn't cheap, but Iceland isn't cheap, but we felt that it was great value and had the trip of a lifetime.
Nice Hotel, however watch events around city
First time visit to Iceland after years of dreaming. Booked the Tower Suite, which is supposed to be one of the best rooms in Iceland and it was. However, since all flights from the US were overnight, we arrived at the hotel around 8:00am and the room was not available for a few hours. Since the hotel requires flight numbers and arrival times, there is no excuse for not having a (any) room available to freshen up.
The week that we were there, the city had a music festival, in which the music could be heard around the city until 3:00am (later on weekends). The guests in the next room (and there are only 2 suites in the Tower) were so loud, that we had to call security twice. To the hotels credit, they made them vacate the room and left us in peace.
Service is impeccable with no "attitude" towards Americans. Front desk helped with tours, etc.
Highly recommeded hotel, but call the them first and ask if any festivals are being held during your visit and if your flight arrives before check-in, ask to have a room to relax in.
A step back in time
This hotel is small but has great character, just like the people of Iceland. You will find yourself pampered as in days gone past. The beds have down pillows and down comforters, there is beautiful art gracing the walls, a hidden wet bar with coffee and pot and a nice selection of teas. All these rooms are suites, they have a sitting area that has overstuffed couch and chairs, of course a bathroom - this is very separate from the rest of the room but still in your room with a shower head that is like showering under a soft summer rain, a table to dine at or play cribbage. a CD player, and t.v. if so inclined, the reception area has a large selection of DVD's for your viewing pleasure. The view I found most pleasurable was the one directly outside our room. We overlooked the center square in front of the building. Our room was on the second floor with four garden windows overlooking the square. All sets of windows opened allowing us to lean out to photograph the street we lived on for 5 days. This is by far the nicest accomodations I have ever had, mostly because I feel more comfortable in intimate surroundings and do not require alot of outside stimuli. the Borg is located a short walk away from the business district of shopping if again you are so inclined. better yet it is near a lake that had swans and geese returning for the spring, we watched small children feeding these beautiful birds. you are a short walk away fom the bay, which on a nice day is well worth the stroll. we had no problem getting around on foot, in fact we never did need transportation except when our tour picked us up to experience the "blue lagoon" which I highly recommend. I can't say enough wonderful things about the Borg or Iceland, it is an amazing experience and I would love to go back again, soon. you can not go wrong with the accommodations of this lovely hotel, take a step back in time and live the history of Iceland.
Yum, yum, yum
I had one night at the Borg as a treat, and never ever wanted to leave.
The lobby is tiny, and to get to some of the guest rooms one has to go through a passage and what looks like a service elevator, but the room made up for all that - quite wonderful. A standard room (sigh, I couldn't afford better) has a large television, a mini stereo system with CD and DVD players, a VCR (and a list of films one can hire from the front desk), a writing desk and two comfortable armchairs. The bathroom was huge with convenient telephone, an enormous bathtub, and a sunflower-style showerhead - this last was fully ten inches across.
Bliss. Breakfast was fabulous, possibly the best I'd had in Iceland. I had a giggle at the stack of shot glasses on the buffet - most Icelandic hotels have a bottle of fishliver oil available, so guests can top up their vitamins for the day, and most places have small plastic cup, but not the Borg - it's much too chichi for that! Treat yourself - the Borg is wonderfully located and is beautiful both inside and out. Life's short - snuggle up in the dressing gown and enjoy it.
Honeymooned at the Borg
We were told by Icelandair that since it was our honeymoon, we should stay at the Hotel Borg, since it was the nicest in the City. It was a great hotel. . . really classic, high ceilings and an amazing view from our third floor room. There were huge windows everwhere. Our bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept on. Scandanavian bedding is like sleeping on a cloud. The hotel is in the center of Reykjavik, so it is walking distance to everything. They also offer great excursions into the country. Breakfast wasn't great. . sort of unorganized, but tasted great when we finally ate. The bathroom was amazing! A huge tub with a rain-like shower. . .and in Iceland you never ever run out of pure, unpolutted hot water. I would stay at the Borg again in a heartbeat. I love Iceland, as it has so much to offer. An amazing country and a romantic honeymoon on top of the world!

Not really much of interest to report unless you find the drive to YYZ (Pearson Airport) and sitting in a plane for 5 hours exciting. If you do, read on. If not, come back later.
I always check out the best and most economical place to park the car at the airport. Depending on the length of the trip, the options are different. In this case, it made most sense to park at the Park 'N Fly lot. They have three options in descending levels of convenience. Option 1 "Valet",,, ...

PHOENIX - A top aide to former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D., Ariz.) who was shot in the leg and face in the Tucson rampage that also severely wounded the congresswoman announced Thursday that he would seek to replace her in a special election.
Democrat Ron Barber said he would run to serve the last six months of Giffords' term; she stepped down last month to focus on her recovery. He said Giffords and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly, asked him to run.
Barber, 66, is a former administrator in the Arizona Department of Economic Security's division of developmental disabilities. He retired in 2006 to work for Giffords; he was her district director.

Met Museum to Present 'Landmark' Jerusalem Exhibition, 9/26
by BWW News Desk - Jul 28, 2016
Beginning around the year 1000, Jerusalem attained unprecedented significance as a location, destination, and symbol to people of diverse faiths from Iceland to India. Multiple competitive and complementary religious traditions, fueled by an almost universal preoccupation with the city, gave rise to one of the most creative periods in its history. Opening at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on September 26, the landmark exhibition Jerusalem 10001400: Every People Under Heaven will demonstrate the key role that the Holy City, sacred to the three Abrahamic faiths, played in shaping the art of this period. In these centuries, Jerusalem was home to more cultures, religions, and languages than ever before. Through times of peace as well as war, Jerusalem remained a constant source of inspiration that resulted in art of great beauty and fascinating complexity. (more...)

New buyers beware trying to catch the turn around. Silver will continue to slide until the powers that be decide to flip the switch. This can take a while.
Sentiment: Hold
This stock will go down to about $2.22 before it starts to turn around in early October.
IMO, turnaround starts well before Oct; already seeing it in Aug futures and I don't think it makes it down to 2.22. IMO, 900 is bottom for spot gold which equates to 15 spot silver at a 60:1 ratio, which is a little crazy but the reality of the day. $15 spot silver, which would likely be a flash in the pan followed a by a "V" like bounce equates to EXK of about 2.45 based on recent trends and my TA. Not, wanting to miss the dip since I don't live on the computer, I'm a buyer at Silver spot at 18 +/- .25 and again at 17 +/- and 16 +/-. Though I believe gold 900 is possible, I don't think it is likely, so the silver 15 is a long shot. Anticipate buyers to pour in on anything below 1000 on gold and silver equivalent. GLTY!
yeah whatever,new buyers/ dont make me laugh...joe sixpack loves the dollar ponziii
it already has taken more than a while,and maybe the powers that be may just lose their power.This might not take a while.
When Ben talks gold goes down, that's not new, but last week Bernanke started talking about tapering, and some folks noticed. Since then the Fed has been in damage control mode, and Bernanke expressed surprise that interest rates have spiked. Maybe all that tapering talk spooked the markets, and the powers that be might not be able to talk gold and silver down from here, because for starters, the price of gold and silver are sitting near multi-year lows.
The markets are very fragile here, because of undisclosed derivative losses or some other financial hocus pocus accounting gimmick.
For years politicians used the excuse that our economy was too fragile to address our big budget issues, and because we never addressed those issues now the politicians are finally right, it is too late to do much but print print print. Print baby print.
Gold and silver are very manipulated, and the Fed is slowly but surely losing control of their own destiny. It doesn't help that we squander trillions on trumped up wars. Here's an idea: Let's just blame all our problems on PFC Brad Manning, and lets keep him naked and sleepless in solitary confinement until he breaks. Yeah, that's the ticket...
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Who are the "powers that be"; what "switch" are you talking about; and what is the criteria for "flipping" the switch. Please elaborate, I'm all ears.
Its going to be a tough day tomorrow!
Sentiment: Sell
How do you think the world's ultra-rich make money? It is called manipulation, and they are way out ahead of you. They will shake out the poor investor until they want to start the ball rolling again.
Be patient through summer.
Sentiment: Hold
go to the internet and search for A. Gary Schilling on Bloomberg.
Thursday he had a very interesting piece on the world economy
Imo, the question is whether they'll be able to make it through the storm without having to take on debt or have mass layoffs.
If they can keep making progress on el cubo and expanding production without taking on debt or laying off at these prices, EXK will be fine in the long run.
Sentiment: Hold

Apple Reports Earnings of $0.45 per share!
Apple Stock Watch: - Apple Reports Earnings of $0.45 per share!
by , 4:45 PM EDT, July 18th, 2000
CNBC just reported Apple announced earnings of $0.45 per share better than the forecast of $0.44 per share! Apple reported $1.83 bilion in revenues up from l $1.6 billion.
Check back for a full report on Apple's conference call with Fred Anderson later this evening.
The consumer price index (CPI), a measure of inflation at the retail level, rose a greater-than-expected 0.6% in June after a 0.1% hike last month, helped along by the strongest rise in energy prices in 14 months. Consumer prices were up 3.7% year over year in June which, according to the Wall Street Journal, matched a nine-year high reached in March.
Sentiment on the Street now places the odds on another interest rate hike by the FOMC in August at 50%. On Thursday, Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan will speak before the Senate Banking Committee on monetary policy.
John Bollinger of equitytrader.com pointed out on CNBC that this quarter's earnings reports are trending 3 to 1 better-than-estimated and that the NYSE advance/decline line (the ratio of advancing stocks to declining ones) has bottomed out and is heading into a broad rally which bodes well for next quarter's earnings period as well as higher stock prices.
Apple lost a 1 1/16 to close at 57 1/4 on volume of 5.2 million shares. AAPL sold off more than a dollar in the last five minutes of trading. The trend for stocks announcing earnings has been to sell-off even when they beat expectations.
An interesting article from Reuters' points out that Apple may yet to have earned the respect of many investors even while delivering positive earning surprises for the past ten quarters in a row.
" 'Investors do not appreciate the superior financial dynamics at Apple and do not accord it the valuation it deserves because -- in our mind -- Apple is still viewed by many as a reformed alcoholic -- just one step away from the gutter,' Bear Stearns analyst Andrew Neff wrote in a recent research report."
The Nasdaq fell 97 points (-2.29%) to closed at 4176 on volume of 1.4 billion shares. Only the Biotech stocks, already the best performing sector in the markets, climbed higher today help by a couple of cool IPOs.
The Dow fell 64 points (-0.60%) to close at 10739 on light volume of 909 million shares.
The S&P 500 dropped 16.75 points (-1.11%) to close at 1493.74.
In Apple related businesses: Akamai slid 2 11/16 to 122 dollars. Adobe skidded down by 4 1/16 to 131 dollars. Earthlink fell 3/4 to 16 9/16. Motorola dumped 7/16 to 37 11/16. IBM shed a 2 5/16 to 103 3/16.
Apple's competitors: Hewlett Packard lost 3 11/16 to close at 131 1/8. Gateway was off by 1 13/16 to close at 63 1/4. Compaq gained 17/32 to close at 28 5/16.
Shares of Microsoft climbed 5/16 to 78 1/2 and then announced earnings of $0.44 besting estimates of $0.42 after the bell.
Intel fell 3 5/16 to 143 dollars. The semiconductor giant reported earnings of $0.50 a share, post split, beating estimates by a penny.

I do recreational lake and river kayaking. This was bought for me as a gift so I can extend the season. I often go out alone and will use this to prevent hypothermia in case of an unintentional wet exit.
I can't comment on the warmth in the water. The fit however is just right for me. I am a large guy 5'10" at 245. It's very comfortable and warm out of the water. One last thing. I have an odd body type. I have avg legs with a very long torso. The bottom half fits great but if you're like me buy some of the shoulder extensions for a custom fit.

Love NRS but not this product. With all the very stretchable and superior comfort wetsuit material options on the market, a better mix of material could be developed. Especially considering the target market. I am 5'10" 235lb. 48" chest 40" waist 32" inseam and should fit right in the G-L range on the size chart. I did not foresee the need for extenders as I have a somewhat shorter than average torso. This suit was both to tight and to short. Extending the shoulder adjustment at all exposes the uncomfortable side of the velcro as I tried everything to be reasonably comfortable. Just to small. I would really like to see a higher quality design with use of more stretchable panels and maybe lose the velcro shoulder straps.

Purchased this for White Water Raffting trip with the Boys Scouts, it fit well and kept me warm on a colder day then expected.

Best Uses
Comments about NRS Grizzly Wetsuit:
I'm 5'8", about 220 lbs with a medium size gut. (Getting smaller lol) When I first got the suit I tried it on and thought it wasn't gonna work from the waist up. Too tight. But wearing a light synthetic underneath on top allows the suit to slide where it needs to. It fits better especially once it gets wet. When dry or too warm I just slip my arms out. I'm happy with it and tough to fit, but it works well.
I'd now consider lighter weight or maybe separate bottoms and tops, more of a custom fit and more versatility, but for a first fit for a newb, it fits fairly well and has kept me comfortable. I've dumped every time in 50 degree water and stayed comfortable. That's what matters.
Best Uses
Comments about NRS Grizzly Wetsuit:
This is my first wetsuit and I was very happy to find that they had a size for us guys with a little extra baggage. At 6' and 240 lbs I'm not exactly svelt and don't look like a swimsuit model but this suit is very comfortable. I have only gotten it wet once and that was in my daughter's really cold swimming pool. I dumped my kayak intentionally and was able to self rescue in the water with the suit and my NRS PFD. Very happy so far.
Best Uses
Comments about NRS Grizzly Wetsuit:
Just got this grizzly wetsuit for kayaking the bay and ocean. Compared to the other 4 wetsuits I purchased and returned and the numerous I Ave tried on this one is the most comfortable. Keep in mind I'm not a small guy and if your a little on the bigger side then this is the suit for you. Easy to move around in and I'm not one to get cold easily so the 3mm is perfect. Got this paired with the nrs Rio paddle jacket and pants keep you warm on cold days and if the water temp is nice the Rio jacket and pants on a lake is all I use. Next season plan on getting a dry suit will probably go with nrs as well.
Best Uses
Comments about NRS Grizzly Wetsuit:
This wet suit is a must for any paddler who enjoys kayaking (or canoeing) during Spring and Fall. Sturdy, as comfortable as can get (wet suits are not made to be comfortable but warm...). Like all the NRS products that I have bought over the 20 years that I have been a sea kayaker, this piece of equipment is extremely well crafted. Keep up the good work (and please, think about the growing numbers of paddlers who are not in their prime and have put on a bit of weight over the years; adjust your sizing and don't forget women!!!)
Service and delivery comments:
As always with NRS, service and delivery was impeccable.

Unlike most other statistical software packages, R doesn't have a native data file format. You can certainly import and export data in any number of formats, but there's no native "R data file format". The closest equivalent is the saveRDS/loadRDS function pair, which allows you to serialize an R object to a file and then load it back into a later R session. But these files don't hew to a standardized format (it's essentially a dump of R in-memory representation of the object), and so you can't read the data with any software other than R.
This marble-based Rube Goldberg machine video is strangely compelling: it's simply made, but full of lots of elegant little flourishes, like the uphill "cannon" made of several magetic balls. The magnetic marbles behind many of the tricks are no longer available (they're very dangerous if swallowed), which I guess is a win for safety ... but just look what you can do with them:

If you're looking for some musical nostalgia this weekend, look no further than How Music Taste Evolved, from design firm Polygraph (and with a hat tip to Pogue).

Apparently, people have strong feelings about how pasta carbonara should be made. A 45-second French video showing a one-pot preparation of the dish with farfalle instead of spaghetti and substituting crème fraîche for most of the cheese — and not even stirring the egg into the pasta to cook it!
